VIDEO: Conservatism vs Liberalism mini-debate between Gov. Scott Walker (WI) and far-Left Gov. Peter Shumlin (VT). Walker cleans Shumlin's clock and shows what kind of candidate Walker might be in 2016.


TOPICS: Constitution/Conservatism; Government; News/Current Events; Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: conservatism; liberalism; shumlin; walker
Walker has shown he can draw the votes of disaffected Democrats as well as Republicans and Conservatives. And he has a solid track record. Perhaps he will be the GOP's pick as "most electable" (?)

Discipline and excessive greed are the underlying dynamics behind the Conservatism Vs. Liberalism debate. Discipline forces people to prioritize, live within their means, and strive towards recovery. A culture of excessive greed mobilizes a crowd saying “I want, I want” and elects people in office who will cater to those wants. And from there, that is where you get chaos and disorder in every area imaginable. Liberal interest groups seek returns on their “investments.” Their primary concern is making sure liberals are elected, not fixing problems and placing a state back on the road to recovery.

Look at the contrast between Pat Quinn (D-IL) and Rick Perry (R-TX). Case proven!

Conservatives and those further right only care about getting conservatives elected. Fortunately for our side, there is a relatively high probability of a conservative politician in executive government appointing former business managers as heads of the various agencies and judges of courts; thus, putting the state back on the road to recovery. The liberal bench is by definition thin in practical experience when it is time to actually put hands on the levers of government. A community organizer is not a manager anymore than is the head of your home-owner association.

Governor Walker is very impressive. My only concern about him is his position on amnesty for illegals. If he modifies that position and states that there will be no path for citizenship to illegals, I think we could have a winning candidate.

The massive problems caused by the illegals in the border states of Calif, Arizona, New Mexico & Texas have NOT hit Wisconsin yet.

People in Wisconsin are clueless about the myriad of problems they can cause.

Don’t worry. Wisconsonites will get to experience them soon enough. Illegals are getting numerous in areas you wouldn’t expect. Lots of them in Georgia, North Carolina, and Washington D.C.
